Oxidase from Alcaligenes sp.

Catalog Number C5896 Storage Temperature –20 C

CAS RN 9028-67-5 Preparation Instructions EC 1.1.3.17 Solutions of choline oxidase may be prepared in 10 mM Synonym: Choline:oxygen 1- Trizma-HCl, pH 8.0, with 2.0 mM EDTA and 134 mM KCl. One publication cites preparation of 2 mg/mL Description stock solutions of choline oxidase in carbonate buffer.5 Choline oxidase is a flavoprotein, and is a member of the GMC-oxidoreductase family. Choline oxidase Storage/Stability catalyzes the four-electron-oxidation of choline to Solution stability was measured as a plot of activity betaine via the intermediate betaine aldehyde,2 versus time for an concentration of 1.0 mg/mL in two sequential FAD-dependent reaction steps. in 0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.5, at 37 C. Choline oxidase can be used for the enzymatic Approximately 75% of the enzymatic activity remained determination of phospholipids by coupling with after 16 hours. In the presence of 10 mM EDTA or phospholipase D and for cholinesterase activity 0.5 mg/mL BSA, approximately 90% enzymatic activity 3.4 assays. remains. Addition of both EDTA and BSA resulted in nearly 100% enzymatic activity remaining after Inhibitors of choline oxidase include p-chloromercuri- 16 hours. benzoate, and various metal ions such as Cu, Co, Hg, and Ag.
